Achieving successful results in fields of retail and corporate banking on the strength of its innovative and technology-focused unique business model which it calls “New Generation Banking” and increasing its profitability and resource diversity every passing year, Aktif Bank, being Turkey’s first and only “Direct Bank”, closed the year of 2011 with a growth rate which is higher than the sectoral averages. Issuing Turkey’s ‘first’ bank bond and Asset Backed Securities issue and launching various innovations into the sector, the Bank has significantly contributed to development of today’s investment products market.

Aktif Bank’s long-term international foreign and local currency rating has been confirmed as BB, being country’s ceiling rating, with due regard to its shareholdering structure, profit-making and fund-raising capacity, and current ratio and levels in its balance sheet composition, as well as to the fact that its ratio of bad-performing credits to total credits is much lower than that of the sector itself. Moreover, stand-alone rating assigned to the Bank for its capacity to honor balance sheet obligations has been set as (AB).
